About: As a passionate pet-loving university student, I bring a unique blend of energy, reliability, and a deep commitment to animal care. My experience includes working with pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior animals requiring extra attention and care. I specialize in basic training for puppies, helping them develop good behavior, and I have a gentle, patient approach when caring for older pets who may need medication or special accommodations. My flexible student schedule allows me to give pets the time and love they deserve, ensuring their comfort and happiness while you’re away. As a university student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Between classes and study sessions, I make time for walks, feedings, and playtime, ensuring pets receive consistent attention throughout the day. On weekends, I dedicate even more time to long walks or special care routines, making sure each pet’s needs are met with love and attention. My passion for animals motivates me to balance my studies and pet care, making every day fulfilling! In my home, I create a safe and welcoming space for pets, ensuring they have a comfortable area to relax, play, and explore. I keep a structured routine, including feeding, walks, and plenty of interactive playtime to keep them engaged and happy. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their familiar routines, ensuring they feel secure in their environment. I follow all care instructions closely, whether it’s administering medication, managing specific dietary needs, or offering extra attention for anxious pets. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners

13. Anirban D.

14. Abigail C.

“Abby did a fantastic job on her first daycare visit with our ShihTzu, Nikki. Though we were hesitant since Nikki was a new rescue to us, Abby was prompt and courteous, communicated with us throughout the day, sent photos, and was ready and waiting the moment we pulled up at the end of the day. Her home has a large fenced backyard, suitable for any large or small breed. We will definitely be reaching out to Abby again for future care!”


15. Sabrina S.
“Sabrina is a very reliable and able dogwalker and looked after our large mixed breed Flat Coated Retriver and Golden Retriver of 40 kg daily for six months.

I can highly recommend Sabrina to look after your pet who will be in the best of care with her.”
